You're conflating two different women, I believe.

The first was disinterred back when Severian was still a boy; Drotte is
captain of the apprentices at the time.

*Years* subsequently pass. But from the conversation of the Vodalarii
("Going far this time? Going to drown yourself again?"), it seems
readily apparent they've been participating in corpse-eating all along,
and not at several year intervals.

Even on ice, a real carrot kept this long is hardly likely to be
delectable!
